Just teasin'. I'm a looooooong time Mary fan. I fell in love with her and her husband (at the time), Malcolm McDowell when I first saw Time After Time on cable in 1980. Yeah, I'm that old.

They had cable in 1980?

TheCentralScrutinizer · 14 Oct 09 :: 21:10

Shocking, I know. But yeah, that's the year HBO exploded into American living rooms. It was so new and special that I would go through the monthly guide from cover to cover and mark what I wanted to watch. And I'd often stay up all night watching movies. Sometimes even set my alarm to wake up in the middle of the night to watch really important stuff. We didn't have VCRs yet. I got my first one of those in 1983. And one of my very first rentals was Time After Time.

Well, look at that. We're certainly seeing a lot of her. This is from Sunday's Cold Case episode (episode 7x03).

-TeeJay

domesticelefant · 14 Oct 09 :: 21:55

Another thing to look forward to.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 14 Oct 09 :: 22:22

I sure wish she would alert people, post it on Facebook or something. I never know when she's on till it's too late.

TeeJay · 14 Oct 09 :: 22:52

She had two scenes, she played a lawyer. Very different role for her to be all smartly dressed and serious.

-TeeJay

TheCentralScrutinizer · 14 Oct 09 :: 23:26

Yeah, I'd love to see that.

domesticelefant · 15 Oct 09 :: 21:05

Me too. But I can wait until the next package is ready.

CappuGirl · 20 Oct 09 :: 12:57

I started watching One tree hill last week. Now I'm at episode 2x18, and there's Judith! I mean Sprague Grayden. She did that at the same time as JOA. She's so different! First time I saw her in another role. She must be good at her job. Like a different person.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 20 Oct 09 :: 16:05

I've seen her in a ton of stuff. She's fantastic. She played the President's daughter in the most recent season of 24, and she kicked ass! She was also a regular on Jericho and in the first season of Sons Of Anarchy. Love her!

CappuGirl · 21 Oct 09 :: 18:38

Oh, damned. I never got into 24 and stopped watching Jericho after a few eps. There was some confusion with the stupid Finnish air dates... Maybe I'll check them again after I've cleared a few series from my list. Yes, I keep a list of series I follow and the episodes I've last seen, or I'd forget where I was going. There's 20 series in that list, in different colors. light grey are series that I want to watch some time in the future, dark greys are on hiatus, red ones I'm following right now and purple ones when I've got extra time. Call me crazy! :rofl:

Nothing else on. Think I'll check it out. Brooke is pretty damn awesome.

Deb, don't you watch "V," also is ACORN a telly network where you live ?

TheCentralScrutinizer · 11 Nov 09 :: 02:55

Yeah, I'll watch V. The movie's on after V. And there's no ep of The Forgotten tonight.

Acorn is not a TV station. Are you referring to me saying maybe Acorn would pick up the Jimmy Nail stuff? Acorn media sells tons of British TV shows and some hard to find American titles as well. You can check them out at http://acornonline.com/videos/c/295/. I got No Honestly, Wodehouse Playhouse and Thomas & Sarah from them. Now, I'm waiting very impatiently for them to pick up Forever Green and lower the price of The Ambassador.

Yeah, I actually was thinking that Acorn was a channel that showed oddball stuff, like they used to do on TRIO a few years ago.

Apparently, both Spender & Crocodile Shoes (series 1 & 2) are available in the UK, legally, and you can get bootlegged copies from a chap that posts on the Jimmy Nail boards at www.imdb.com.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 11 Nov 09 :: 03:08

We'll hold of them one of these days, somehow.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 11 Nov 09 :: 04:07

It just hit me, finally. Probably because she's smiling a lot in this movie. The thing about Brooke and why I find myself falling for her is that she reminds me of someone. Someone I love. Megan Follows. It's not that she looks like her, but she eerily evokes her, most especially when she talks and smiles.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 11 Nov 09 :: 05:54

Crap! They ruined an otherwise fine little movie with a stupid pratfall! I'd be crying right now if they hadn't taken me out of the story with that. Dammit.

I like Megan Follows, too. Sarah Polley also reminds me of her.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 11 Nov 09 :: 16:17

Ah, that's only because she's also Canadian.

The Messenger, and Ben Foster's performance in it, sound Oscar-worthy from this article...

As I said before, I went to see Love happens tonight (or yesterday since it's alredy past midnight here) and I absolutely loved Dan Fogler's performance. It was nice to see him in something else than Fanboys. Maybe not as funny, but still highlarious. LOL

TheCentralScrutinizer · 23 Nov 09 :: 02:12

Inadvertent Ritterfest today. Saw most of Good Dick and the last 45 minutes of Charlie Banks on cable. Somehow feels incomplete.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 02 Dec 09 :: 04:22

Well, this is very exciting to me. Shannon Lucio will be guesting on True Blood in the upcoming season. Woohoo!

Just saw a sweet little trailer for a movie called When In Rome that stars Kristen Bell, Alexis Dziena and Don Johnson. And another one for a movie called She's Out Of My League that stars Jay Baruchel.

Where? Is? Chris???
